Wow so now there are two Battraw boys working at
Mcdonalds. Thats got to be interesting. Lots of Mcdonalds at home
then? Thats super cool! What kind of birds will tom be gettting? Who is
going to take care of them during his mission? The new Hunger Games
move was good?I heard that they are doing a part1 and part 2. Still
haven´t figured out anything for this Christmas, next week will be
interviews with President Castro so I´ll be sure to ask him then!
This week was interesting here.Monday we got to spend the day in
Manaus. I got to go back to one of my old areas and have lunch there
with one of the members there and then we got to go downtown and did a
little sightseeing. We took pictures in front of the theatre there in
Manaus which is more than a 100 years old so its super cool. It was a
fun day to go to Manaus. Tuesday was the conference with Elder Adukaitis
of the Seventy and it was really good. We got to be included in the
morning session which was really good. Elder Adukaitis who happens to
be the cousin of President Klein, gave a training on how to approach and
teach families, and how to plan better as missionaries. It was super
good and useful. A lot of it talked about the attitudes of missionaries.
About how we need to do more than talk, but do and show. Tuesday
afternoon we got back on the bus to go to Itacoatiara. It took 4
hours,but we all managed to get back in one piece. Wednesday,I wasn´t
feeling too well, but managed to still work. This week we managed to
find one family that is 7th day Adventist who is super cool. We´ll be
able to start teaching them consistently this week. Jucileno is doing
well. His wife is reading the Book of Mormon and is really thinking
about being baptized. They are a super cool family, every time we go
there they offer us food! The new owner of the house where we were
living now went to church this week! His name is Sergio and he served
in the Brazilian Navy for 30 years and lives with his wife. We stopped
by his house Friday night and started talking to him and he told us that
he wanted to go to church this Sunday and he went! He even took along
with him a friend. Today we had lunch at his home and he barbecued and
everything. Super good food! We are going to start teaching him and his
wife tomorrow! We are super excited for them!
